在网上收集了几种译法：供各位参考，希望起到抛砖引玉的作用：6 C7 u! H, ~! v- E y8 |
' _2 t& f9 P' t- R 1、don"t flip flop (别翻来倒去，朝三暮四); x, f! L% L+ S) r5 Z

上述译法，觉得都不够准确，不够精彩，没有把“折腾”的全部意思表达出来。这里推荐一个译法，感觉比较恰当：! |6 F7 }, n+ K4 g) ~; X
8 I% f* N$ a) Q( s1 q ?1 p& Z# i- D
avoid self-inflicted setbacks (不折腾). w% o9 j4 U+ o, c
7 B3 a4 a! V1 a4 J1 I) \- S, l 原因是：. r: Z2 k9 n2 d' L/ e2 O
9 l+ o% K c; A0 E$ H3 d2 h2 N! R
“self-inflicted” has the connotation of creating theunnecessarypain for one self.
% H4 D3 x+ F, n A
$ |8 y8 \ a+ D( I/ q 折腾 in Hu"s speech has a strong connotation that such kindofsetback is self-seeking instead of being due to theinterferencefrom outside.
* T, @: ?1 y9 t( H5 `' g6 W6 `0 c' f& Y3 ]1 b3 y* _
“Setback” is a much better word than “trouble”, whichanunseasoned translator would like to use in the firstinstance.“Setback” especially refers to the obstacle ordifficultyencountered in achieving a strategic goal. |
